These networks range from focused conferences to collaborative practice improvement initiatives, helping to scale innovations, develop faculty and residents, and provide peer-to-peer expertise. Evidence shows that networks can improve clinical outcomes, knowledge, teamwork, and quality improvement skills. Successful networks involve regular communication, in-person meetings, and ongoing support between meetings, though challenges include competition concerns and cost-effectiveness considerations.
